"The principal instantaneously kicked her out of school, this violated her First Amendment right."

India Landry, a 17-year-old high school student at Windfern High School, has been practicing her right to free speech by protesting the Pledge of Allegiance for quite some time now. According to the New York Daily News, she has sat during the Pledge of Allegiance hundreds of times, but her principal had enough of it last week.

Principal Martha Strother told India to leave the classroom after she refused to stand. India was then reportedly told to leave school — but she's fighting back with a lawsuit.

"She told India to stand, she said she wouldn't as she had for a year and a half, through six different teachers," India's attorney, Randall Kallinen told KHOU. "The principal instantaneously kicked her out of school, this violated her First Amendment right."
